    Default Looking for new aftershave recommendations

    Hi all. So, looking for another aftershave or two to try out. I've been an Aqua Velva man for along time and still enjoy it very much. I'm just looking for some change. I like the burn of AV and would like that to carry over into my next aftershave. So fellas, what are some of you're favs? All input and recommendations are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Have you tried bay rum or Osage rub?

    I'm using captains choice bay rum. It's got a burn to it then a warming sensation. Leaves my face feeling smooth. Plus it's all natural and has witch hazel. The scent is great and lasts for a little while.

    Proraso splash cools like aqua Velva and has a great scent.

    I also love weleda aftershave splash. It smells great and feels good on the skin.

    I use Ogallala Bay Rum and Sandalwood, T&H Trafalgar or Floid Blue. Can't lose with any of those.

    Then there's always the old school clubman. That stuff is great!

    Proraso is great stuff. Razorock baby blue from italian barber is excellent stuff. Speick if you like warmer scents (very nice for winter months).
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    As an added bonus, the "burn" gives you great feedback on your shaving technique.
